The first and second energy level will hold maximum of 2 and 8 electrons.
A gold atom has 6 energy levels. Level 1: 2 electrons Level 2: 8 electrons Level 3: 18 electrons Level 4: 32 electrons Level 5: 18 electrons Level 6: 1 electron
Electrons are those found in the outermost energy level of an atom?They are called valence electrons.
The energy of the valence electrons is greater then the energy of the core electrons.APEX
Outermost have more energy than innermost. As electrons move inward, they release energy.

Two electrons
The first energy level can contain 2 electrons. The second energy level can contain 8 electrons. The third energy level can contain 18 electrons.
2 electrons are in magnesiums last energy level
there are 2 electrons in potassium's innermost energy level
2 electrons
Mg (1s2, 2s2 2p6, 3s2) = 2, 8, 2
first energy level contains only S shell that can accomadate 2 electrons where as 2nd energy level contains S shell and P shell as well which can accomadate 2 and 6(3X2) electrons respectively..so the answer is 8 for 2nd energy level. (or) No.of electrons in any main energy level = 2n2 Here n = orbit (or energy level) number In our question , n = 2 No.of electrons in 2nd energy level = 2(2)2 = 8
The first energy level can hold 2. The second level can hold 8. The third level can hold 18. Fourth and beyond can hold 32.
First energy level can hold 2 electrons.Second energy level can hold 2 + 6 = 8 electrons. Total = 10 electrons.
Calcium atoms have 8 electrons in the second energy level. However, they are not the valence electrons. The outermost electrons in a calcium atom in the ground state are 2 4s electrons. So calcium atoms in the ground state have 2 valence electrons in the fourth energy level.
